Hello John & Dave thanks for the comments. The spraying is moving along just when you think the light is at the end of the tunnel some extra parts that needed painting that I didn't think off have been added to the list.

Door Straps & Fixings

Image

Front doors in top coat, now wet sanded, buffed and ready to fit.

Image

Rear doors have been sanded 320g ready for next coat of white primer for blocking.

Image

No spray booth oven needed yesterday afternoon, 36 DEG outside. Toastie!

Image

Couple more weeks and should be done.

It took a little longer than expected but there is white at the end of the tunnel. The boss is pleased anyway.

Gorgeous Ross! Surely turned out better than it would have done had it been to the bodyshop...
Can you forward me a couple of higher res images pretty please?
